## Enter the Käsewerkstatt
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
One day earlier this year I woke up and realized I had a space problem.
 | 
						|
I was trying to build out a workshop and tackle ever more advanced and dusty plastic and woodworking projects and after another small run in with my girlfriend after I had repeatedly crossed the "No-Sanding-and-Linseed-Oiling-Policy" in our Living Room, it was time to do something about it.
 | 
						|
I am based in Berlin right now and the housing market is going completely haywire over here ( quick shoutout in solidarity with [Deutsche Wohnen und Co enteignen](https://dwenteignen.de/)).
 | 
						|
End of the song: I won't be able to afford to rent a small workshop anywhere near berlin anytime soon. As you will notice in some other projects, I am quite opposed to the Idea that it should be considered normal to park ones car in the middle of the city on public spaces, for example [Autoimmunitaet](/autoimmunitaet), [Commoning Cars](/commoning-cars) or [Dreams of Cars](/dreams-of-cars).
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
So, the idea was born, to regain that space as habitable zone, taking back usable space from parked cars.
 | 
						|
I was gonna install a mobile workshop within a trailer.
 | 
						|
Ideally, the trailer should be lockable and have enough standing and working space.
 | 
						|
As it turns out, Food Trailers fulfill these criteria quite nicely. So I got out on a quest, finding the cheapest food trailer available in germany.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
6 weeks later, I found it near munich, got it and started immediately renovating it.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Due to developments in parallel, I was already invited to sell food and have the ofgficial premiere at the Bergfest, a Weekend Format in Brandenburg an der Havel, initiated and organized by [Zirkus Creativo](https://zirkus-creativo.de). Many thanks for the invitation here again!
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
So on it went, I spent some afternoons renovating and outfitting the trailer, and did my first ever shopping at Metro, a local B2B Foodstuffs Market.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Meanwhile, I got into all the paperwork and did all the necessary instructional courses and certificates.
 | 
						|
The first food I wanted to sell was Raclette on fresh bread, a swiss dish that is quite popular in germany.
 | 
						|
For the future, the trailer is supposed to tend more towards vegan dishes, as a first tryout I also sold a bruschetta combo. This turned out great, since the weather was quite hot and the bruschetta was a nice and light snack, while I could use the same type of bread for the raclette.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|

 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The event itself was great, and, in part at least, started paying off the trailer.

We encountered lots of positive feedback and I am looking forward to the next event. So, in case you want to have a foodtruck at your event, hit me up!
